Snowy Vectors

Featured Replies

Lake Superior has mostly frozen over.  Very occasionally the large lake will completely freeze.  One year when I lived up there there was no snow cover and it froze inland without much wind for days.  You could walk out for miles and see the lake floor below your feet it was so clear.  A couple on a walk found an undiscovered ship wreck from the 1800's below their feet.

Anyway, random story aside - here are some pics of a quick departure off KDYT (now shortened to keep the tree huggers happy - it would be too short in real life to use for the CJ4) and a vector to (and then rejoining) the ILS 27 at KDLH Duluth Intl, MN

Approach needed some extra space so they "spun me" and re-vectored me.  Practice approach aircraft (even IFR) come after itinerants.

Behind me is the North Shore and direction is NE (I'm flying SW)

Yes.  It's nice that they fixed the clouds on the groubd thing.  Though in Duluth we'd frequently have something like VV001 on the ATIS.

I actually hate being cold....  but somehow we're still in a cold climate....we tried moving elsewhere but it kept calling us home.  Florida someday perhaps!
